So back to the Kissing... According to my research,
Kissing naturally relaxes you. Scientific reports say kissing increases the levels of oxytocin, the body's natural calming chemical and also increased endorphins, the body's feel-good chemicals, and noted an increase of dopamine, which aids in feelings of romance. All these natural feel good chemicals lead to increased self-esteem.
Kissing helps you pick a good lover. Anthropologist Helen Fisher describes kissing as a "mate assessment tool".
"Much of the brain cortex is devoted to picking up sensations from around the lips, cheeks, tongue and nose. Out of 12 cranial nerves, 5 of them are picking up the data from around the mouth. It is built to pick up the most sensitive feelings—the most intricate tastes and smells and touch and temperature. And when you're kissing somebody, you can really hear them and see them and feel them. So kissing is not just kissing. It is a profound advertisement of who you are, what you want and what you can give."
"At the moment of the kiss, there are hard-wired mechanisms that assess health, reproductive status and genetic compatibility," says Gordon G. Gallup Jr., a professor of evolutionary psychology at the State University of New York at Albany who studies reproductive competition and the biology of interpersonal attraction. "Therefore, what happens during that first kiss can be a make-or-break proposition."
Kissing burns calories varying anywhere from 2 to 6 calories a minute.
And there is nothing like a good makeout session to keep your facial muscles strong and young looking! Plus it Boosts Immunity and helps prevent Tooth Decay. I could go on...but I think you get the picture!
